Lets Move and Wiggle Wobble!!!
Funded Sep 23, 2016Thank you so much for providing my students with great opportunities to have materials that enhance their learning as well as gross motor skills. The impact the wobbly and bouncing chairs provided for my students is incredible. My special education students as well as my general education students are having a blast using the yoga exercise mat, the tactile stepping stone as well as the get knotted game. The get knotted game has been a hit in the classroom, especially since we have cold days and the students can't go outside to exercise. Once again I can not thank you enough for all the support you have given to my students. Thank you!!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Target and one other donor.We Need Sensory Materials
Funded Mar 29, 2016My students are delighted with the sensory materials we received. These materials have helped in amazing ways my students' behavior. They love the bean bag reading chairs when they are reading to self they feel a very cozy and inviting environment. Those chairs really are a motivation for them to read. The wobble chairs are a hot item in the classroom when my students need to concentrate and write or complete other tasks that requires for then to sit down. They love completing their writing assignments as well as when they are reading to self on the wobble chairs. The audio system is a fantastic way to block sounds that triggers inappropriate behaviors with my special needs students. I plan to continue putting these materials to good use and will look for ways to implement to continue improving my students' learning abilities.”

Write The Room
Funded Mar 9, 2016Thank you very much for all the support my students and I have received. Thank you is just not enough words to express my gratitude. Your support and dedication to give and create opportunities for our future generation is extremely valuable. My students are thrilled to have these materials. They were able to create supportive anchor charts that helped them achieve higher learning goals. They also have new laminated Math and ELA games centers that will last for a long. These games have provided them with opportunities to enhance their math and language skills.
